Method for electromagnetically shielding a sensor window
First Claim
1. A method of electromagnetically shielding a sensor window with a metallization coating, the method comprising:
- providing a randomized elliptical grid pattern having a plurality of randomly distributed elliptical shapes, where providing includes arranging the elliptical shapes on the sensor window such that the elliptical shapes are physically connected to each-other as a result of direct shape-to-shape contact or overlap, where arranging includes increasing a pattern density, which is a ratio of elliptical shapes per unit of sensor window area, towards an edge of the sensor window; and
where the elliptical shapes are hollow to allow for transmission of electro-optical radiation through the sensor window.
